Subject: New Song Lyrics

This is my own take on a Neil Diamond song-Derek and I already have some music ready for it so we should have it by next practice and our next show.

AMERICA

Everywhere around the world
They're working for America,
Drilling oil and sewing shirts,
They're working for America.
Everywhere around the world
They're working for America,
Paid in pennies for their works,
They're working for America.
Everywhere around the world
They're afraid of America,
They're afraid of our bombs and planes,
They're afraid of America.
Everywhere around the world,
They resent America,
They resent the things we've done,
They hate America.

No empathy for foreign souls,
Yearning to breathe free,
Brighter than dawn's early light,
Yet no one can see.
We cant afford to close our eyes,
We can't turn our back,
Let's rise up with a single voice,
and take this country back.

Everywhere around the nation
They forgot about America.
Now it's one big corporation,
In a land called America,
Buy bloody jeans at the Gap,
And call that America,
a C in a circle on a map,
We call it America.
They stole the land from the tribes,
And named it America,
Broke the treaties infitie times,
In the name of America.
Never learn from our mistakes
that's the history of America,
We've become what we hate
What Happened to America?

No empathy for foreign souls,
Yearning to breathe free,
Brighter than dawn's early light,
Yet no one can see.
We cant afford to close our eyes,
We can't turn our back,
Let's rise up with a single voice,
and take this country back.

What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
What Happened to America?
